💅 fm10k_service_timer(9) — the timer call-back bestie 💅

okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's about fm10k_service_timer — a timer call-back. yes it's short, no we're not skipping anything, let's get into it ✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

fm10k_service_timer — Timer Call-back 🎀

like, that's literally the whole name. it's the callback the timer fires. slay.

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void fm10k_service_timer (struct timer_list *t );

that's it. that's the whole signature. returns void (nothing back, king behavior) and takes one pointer to a struct timer_list 💖

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• t — pointer to timer data 🫶

that's the one and only argument. it's a pointer, it points at timer data, and that's the vibe. ngl a single argument is kind of iconic of it.

and the source file it all lives in, for the lore:

• Kernel file ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/fm10k/fm10k_pci.c

bestie pls note: the manpage's own footer shortens that path to ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/f... when it runs out of room — that's the page being cute about column width, not a different file 💀

and that's the whole page!! short, sweet, single-argument, zero drama 🌈💖 if you made it this far you now know more about fm10k_service_timer than 99% of the timeline 👑

later bestie 🫶 — this has been the Kernel API Manual, page dated October 2026, sourced from ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/f... (you know the one), and it's also filed under fm10k_service_timer(9) if you ever need to find it again 💅✨
